The Gratts and Nick on Maui: Day 8

Sadly, our last full day was finally here. We woke up at 6:20 but lounged in bed until 7:30. We had all agreed that we were just going to relax today and then go back to happy hour at Merriman's. We read our check out instructions for the next day and got a head start on packing. 

For breakfast, we went back to the Sea House. Ben got the Thai omelet and a lava flow and I had the traditional breakfast. 

Back at the condo, I had lava flows and the boys had beers on the balcony. 

Around 11:00, I took a beach chair that was at the condo and a book and spent 2 hours in a shady spot on the beach by the condo while the boys went to Maui Brewing.

I loved just sitting down there watching the ocean and reading and at times I had the beach practically all to myself. 

Around 1:30, Ben came to see what I was up to and since the shade was running out by then, I went back to the condo to shower and get ready for happy hour at Merriman's. This was the one night I put on makeup and I wore the new dress I had brought. But when we got to Merriman's, it was closed for a private event. I was so bummed but glad we had gotten to go once. 

We went to the Sea House for happy hour drinks and pupus (appetizers). 

On the way home, we were still hungry so we stopped at Fish Market Maui for takeout and ate it back at the condo.

After dinner, Ben and I watched our last sunset alone on the balcony, not going inside until it was completely dark.
